CONGRATULATIONS NEW CHAIRMAN’S COUNCIL MEMBER AND FOUR-STAR DIRECTOR JP WATKINS!

The Chairman's Council is an exclusive club for PlanNet Marketing Four-Star Directors (Four-Star Directors must have 1,500 active ITAs in their downline). Chairman Donald Bradley  presented Director Watkins with her Chairman’s Council jacket this past weekend at the Super Saturday event in Atlanta, GA.

Director Watkins: “This man changed my life. He said if I followed his mentorship I would make more money than I've ever made in the industry. He came through on his promise and then some! I was so honored today to be presented with the coveted Chairman's Council jacket. I simply could not have done it without the leadership of my amazing coach, mentor and friend - PlanNet Marketing Founder and Chairman of the Board - Mr. Donald Bradley! THANK YOU! 
 

CONGRATULATIONS TO NEW ONE-STAR DIRECTOR AND 20/20 CLUB MEMBER TAMIR BROOKS!

Congratulations to new One-Star Director and 20/20 Club member, Tamir Brooks! Tamir was born and raised in Oakland, CA, the first son and the seventh of nine children. Coming from humble beginnings, he says that he always wanted to live above the common existence of his surroundings. As a result he became an entrepreneur at a very young age. He relays that at age 18, a life-changing experience caused him to move from California to Nashville, TN to start a new life.

Today Director Brooks lives in Birmingham, AL, husband to La'Toya and father of two sons, ages 5 and 17, and a daughter, age 6. He's currently working full time as an electrician and building his PlanNet business part time. He loves to read, exercise, travel, and spend quality time with friends and family. Director Brooks has traveled to Mexico several times and has traveled all over the United States.

Helping people is Tamir’s passion, so sharing the PlanNet Marketing opportunity comes naturally to him. He understands success is in large numbers so he makes certain to talk to many people about the business and not get emotionally attached to their decision.  

Tamir's dream is to become a multimillionaire so that he can pioneer programs that will give back to the inner city communities from which he comes. He feels the best way to help the the less fortunate is to become financially independent in order to give back. 

PlanNet Marketing congratulates Tamir Brooks on achieving One-Star Director and 20/20 Club Membership!

20/20 CLUB WELCOMES THREE-STAR DIRECTORS BERNARD AND CYNTHIA HAMPTON!

PlanNet Marketing’s Three-Star and Founding Directors, Bernard and Cynthia Hampton, are now members of the prestigious 20/20 Club! Although Bernard had his humble beginnings in South Carolina and Cynthia in Washington, DC, the Hamptons currently reside in sunny south Florida. Bernard has always had an entrepreneurial spirit, as he purchased equipment and started his own lawn service at just 23 years old. This endeavor involved establishing and maintaining elite clientele, acquiring and retaining employees, overseeing records/bookkeeping and the distribution of payroll. Bernard single-handedly performed all aspects of his business while simultaneously being employed with the Cities of Coral Gables and South Miami.

The Hamptons’ greatest enjoyment is spending quality time with their children and grandchildren. They also enjoy line dancing, bowling, listening to music, playing Family Feud, watching movies, and of course traveling! Thanks to being a part of this amazing company, the Hamptons have traveled to Las Vegas, Jamaica, Haiti, Cancun, and the Bahamas within the past six months.

Bernard and Cynthia attribute their success in PlanNet Marketing to developing a fun, yet educational environment for their team. They are firm believers that you must lead by example, that the best leaders are the ones who inspire others to achieve greatness each and every day, and that people are loyal to people and not titles. The Hamptons state that recruiting, training, retention and duplication are the keys to building a strong and successful foundation.

The Hamptons’ Tips for Success:

  1. Discover your “why” and keep your “why” in front of you
  2. Stop fearing, doubting and complaining
  3. Commit to the system
  4. Open, change and expand your mind
  5. Read, read, read
  6. Always remain humble
  7. Lead by example
  8. Remember there is no “I” in the word “TEAM”
  9. You MUST become a “product” of the product
  10. Stay plugged in

PlanNet Marketing congratulates Three-Star Directors Bernard and Cynthia Hampton on achieving 20/20 Club Membership!

20/20 CLUB WELCOMES KYRA HARRIS!

New 20/20 Club Member Kyra Harris is originally from New Orleans and relocated to Houston, TX in 2010. She is a licensed cosmetologist and works for a beauty brand company as a sales coordinator. Kyra loves cooking, dancing, traveling, and meeting new people. She travels frequently, with recent visits to Aruba, Cancun, Jamaica, and many US cities. She says, “I actually utilized my business perks on my recent trip to Aruba and I truly enjoyed myself traveling as a business owner versus a consumer.”  

Krya continues, “I would personally like to thank my coach One-Star Director Lavonda Thorton-Bush for training/coaching me to the success level I have currently attained in this business. She has provided me with great advice and tips that I utilize quite often when training my personal team.  

“Tips I would like to provide: REMAIN COACHABLE. You will never know everything, especially when you are in an unfamiliar new industry. Network marketing is really simple once you start allowing yourself to LEARN.  Also attend the events you are qualified to attend, which are your weekly meetings, conference calls, webinars, team calls, travel parties, Super Saturdays, and most importantly, CONVENTION. This will be life-changing and help you better understand your business and product.

“I feel I have achieved success because I remained a student of the industry (as Mr. Bradley states). Read your books - it will help you, especially in the beginning stages when you receive rejection. I used to hate picking up the phone to receive constant rejection so that is when I started utilizing more of my cold market/social media (FB, Instagram etc). Once I started receiving responses and gaining business partners (who are practically my family now), it made me proud that others admired my work ethic and willingness to ensure they succeed as well.

“What I love most about this amazing business is that I learned to OWN what my strengths are. When you OWN what your strengths are, you will not give your weaknesses a chance. I love how empowered I feel to let everyone know I am an Independent Representative of PlanNet Marketing and I can offer you the opportunity to own a travel franchise and travel the world. That introduction itself speaks volumes and that is why I love my business so much.

“A fun fact about me is that I am a great voice impersonator!  Many people who have encountered this side of me truly get a kick out of seeing how well I can imitate others.”

PlanNet Marketing congratulates Kyra Harris on achieving 20/20 Club Membership!

20/20 CLUB WELCOMES HAZEL TRUESDELL!

New 20/20 Club Member Hazel Truesdell was born in San Jose, CA and now lives in Waukegan, IL, taking the PlanNet by storm! She hit the ground running, thinking about bettering her life and cultivating the lives of each of her children (ranging from ages 3 to 20). Having interest in family and travel made PlanNet Marketing a natural fit, providing her an opportunity to find deals on bringing family together, and to see and go to new places and experience new adventures together. To make money while doing it seemed like a no-brainer.

Hazel relates that she doesn’t feel like she’s doing anything “special” to achieve her successes. She follows the system, reads daily to inspire herself and maintain her focus, and ensures she is continually plugged in. There is always something new to learn and incorporate. She knows that the more information she can absorb and take in daily can be useful to those who are a part of her team. There is a continuous cycle of give and take with each person’s focus for personal betterment that then gets brought back to the team by way of inspiration and added focus and growth as a whole. She believes the way to achieve success is to remain coachable. Maintaining this position of being a student of the business makes it easy to accept new possibilities and feed that energy back to her team as well. This place of open possibility helps her to continue leaning into the potential growth. As is said in one of her favorite quotes of inspiration and empowerment, “Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.”

“Small steps are always necessary to make long strides.”

PlanNet Marketing congratulates Hazel Truesdell on achieving 20/20 Club Membership!

20/20 CLUB WELCOMES ELICIA MIDDLETON!

New 20/20 Club Member Elicia Middleton, known as Lysa, resides in Houston, TX. Lysa tells us, “I'm interested in travel and talk radio (I co-host a talk radio show). I haven't done much traveling, which is the reason I signed up so I can change that. So far, I have done a ship inspection of the Disney Dream in Florida.

“My success comes from my enthusiasm. People see how excited I am and how my business has blessed me and they want in! Be ON FIRE about your business! If you're not, why would people think that they can be successful in this business?

PlanNet Marketing congratulates Elicia Middleton on achieving 20/20 Club Membership!

20/20 CLUB WELCOMES KENDRA BENNETT!

The PlanNet Marketing 20/20 Club is proud to welcome Kendra Bennett!  Kendra grew up on St. Helena Island, SC and currently lives in Columbia (Irmo), South Carolina. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Marketing degree from South Carolina State, an Associate in Health Degree from Midlands Technical College, and is also a graduate of Morris College Ministerial Extension Program, and last, but not least… a Diamond Life Member of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority. She is a licensed and ordained Associate Minister at the First Nazareth Baptist Church.

Kendra and her husband, Colonel Curtis Bennett, have one daughter, Michaela Alexus, who is a senior at Coastal Carolina University. Michaela is also a PlanNet team member and has achieved Silver Builder status!  

Kendra loves to travel and has a bucket list of places she plans to visit within the next few years - London, Dubai, France, and Africa!  She says, “I’ve only been in the travel industry a little over a year. I am having a great time booking travel, sharing this amazing opportunity, and having lots of fun while doing it. I take pride in sharing this opportunity as a part of my ministry, helping to change and impact lives, one family at a time.”
 
“As far as my success is concerned, I have to give credit to my dynamic leadership team, who spends selfless hours pouring into me. They have taught me to stay plugged in and stay focused. Furthermore, this opportunity has made me focus more on keeping my head, heels and standards high! I am so thankful to be a part of such a sophisticated organization. Each day it becomes more evident that the best is yet to come. I am definitely in it to win it!  If I could give any advice today, it would be to stay plugged in, stay focused, and stay the course. Become a student of the industry -  “Can all you get” and “Get all you can.”

PlanNet Marketing congratulates Kendra Bennett on achieving 20/20 Club Membership!

COMPLIANCE CORNER

Have you ever heard of a little document I like to call the PlanNet Marketing Policies and Procedures? If you’re a faithful reader of my column, then you know what this is. If you haven’t ever heard of it before – then please LISTEN UP!
 
The PlanNet Marketing Policies and Procedures is a list of all the rules of PlanNet Marketing – rules we promise to follow, and rules we expect you to follow, as a Rep. When you enroll with PlanNet Marketing via our website, you fill in a bunch of info to create your account, credit card info to pay for your monthly hosting fees, and you check several boxes “agreeing” to many things – one of those things is the IR Agreement or Policies and Procedures. You agree to follow all of our rules without question. Yes! Really! You agreed! So, maybe you should know what those rules are? Probably a good idea.
 
Each week I write about some of those rules, I explain them, their benefits to you, their benefits to PlanNet Corporate, and their benefits to all our Reps in the field.
 
Please make sure that if you’re assisting your prospects in signing up via our website – that you share the Policies and Procedures document with them – because they agreed to follow those rules too!
 
This document is EASY to find! You can email me at compliance@plannetmarketing.com and I’ll send you the most recent copy, or you can visit the Information Center in your Virtual Office, click “Resources” and then the Policies and Procedures document.
 
-- Policies and Procedures Section 2.2. located in your Virtual Office in the Information Center
   (go to Resources, then Policies and Procedures).
